UH is definitely looking for another true big man, but with three scholarships available an addition to guard depth is possible as well.

Roderick Bobbitt taking visit to Hawaii April 11? I thought Gib was going after a Big?
Brian, maybe Gib needs a bigger guard at point or combo. Guy can finish at the rim and spot up for 3 pointer. Defend.
Oh well, we shall see. What is your take Brian, is Gib trying to shore up the guard rotation, get bigger at point?

Brian: Look Forward to the Updates of Scholarships Awarded (maybe at The Banquet?);
As Well As, New Talent Incoming to Help Build to ‘The Real NEXT LEVEL’…
Some of Us Think or Can Foresee that This Program may be ‘On the Verge of Something Special in Hawai’i
Basketball Evolution…

So it could be maybe, 2 to offer to a Big or athletic SF/SG/combo. Recruiting, is so huge, the right fit , high character guys. For example, possibly,Isaac Fleming coming from very far away, 3 star athlete and discplined at the Military Prep school, nice fit, combo guard could help shore up the guard rotation.

Even Nikola Filipovich, who has that Dawg in him in practices, with scout, fearless PG. That is the kind of guards UH needs. Heady , can defend, and willing to score, run team.

You answer our inquires in such a timely manner! Thank you so very much for the scholarship count for next season so far.
So , that is what some of us thought, 3 available for next season. This recruiting April-May, until even summer, key.

Mahalo again Brian. Keep us informed on latest on Brandyn Akana, and NCAA investigation. Hoping for the best for UH athletics and MBB program!

Right now my understanding is there are three scholarships available for next season to award to either new players or returning walk-ons.

The 10 scholarships spoken for right now for 2014-15 are: Keith Shamburger, Garrett Nevels, Brandon Jawato, Quincy Smith, Negus Webster-Chan, Stefan Jovanovic, Michael Thomas, Isaac Fotu, Stefan Jankovic and Isaac Fleming.
That leaves three.

I was alluding to post by JFByers, interesting, post that you made. If UH supports athletics, or their is a movement to eventually undo the Athletic Program. I think with proper oversight, doing things effectively and timely, UH can manage the academic side, which is primarily why we have the institution. And secondly, the Athletics side, which Ben Jay has a huge challenge on getting dept. into the black.

Once again, for a lot of UH fans, and those interested in providing the best higher learning for the students, this UH MBB investigation will be over and done with in a short time. Whatever the findings, minimal, if any damage, and UH academic and athletic side keep on getting better.
Now, the waiting game.
Apologize man eating apple, I was referring to JFByers interesting and insightful comments.

How much does the University have vested interest in maintaining DI sports?Are the powers that be, that interested in keeping All of the Athletic programs afloat? Or is UH just an academic, a great research and grant funded institution? As man eating apple alluded to, paperwork errors, can cause program, UH MBB , or FB, VB to be here or not in a couple of years?

Ever since UH became a full fledged NCAA DI athletic program, always something to mar some teams respectable athletic achievements.

I hope the NCAA investigators, do what they do, UH if any, receives minimal damage, or sanctions if any, and UH MBB and DI Athletics gets back to what they do, win games and win championships.
Enough pilikia already. Whatever it is, hope UH MBB program and others comes out okay, and UH just moves on and uprwards.
